Well mine come up during the winter unlike your autumn flowering variety.

Yes barnacles do grow during the winter, but much slower.

I hate barnacles, can't stand the way they look and now i hate 'em even more, 'orrible things, that looks like a picture of an alien! I am always trying to resist the tempation of scraping the horrible little crusty eyesores off piles etc in marinas but never do as I am sure they will just find another home on other peoples boats, including my own!!
